  • Even the mainstream training field is realizing that reduced layers of bureaucracy mean decision-making gets pushed down the organization chart. This
  • is the message of the AMA in the promotional video – Critical Thinking: Not just a C-suite skill.  However, wirearchy takes this one important step further by advocating a two-way flow of power and authority. In both cases, the need for critical thinking is evident.
  • A personal knowledge management process can help to develop critical thinking skills, where sense-making includes observing, studying, challenging (especially one’s assumptions), and evaluating. Developing these skills takes practice, appropriate feedback and an environment that supports critical thinking.

  • Several web tools can be used to develop critical thinking skills; the foundation of PKM:
  • Wirearchy as the organizational framework, coupled with active personal knowledge management processes, is a step in that direction
  • how important an open source framework is as we move more of our computing to the cloud
  • issues on how Ning treats its customers, users and their data.
  • While Ning may be free, it is not open source, and the company can make changes at will, just like Facebook, Google or Twitter may do.
  • I advise my clients that they should consider how important their data is to them before using software as a service (SaaS). Can the data be easily exported? With social bookmarks, it is easy to export and import OPML files from one platform to another. It is also simple to export from WordPress.com SaaS to your own open source hosted version
  • With Ning, Facebook and many others, there is no such export function
  • So what is the alternative to Ning?
  • For large enterprise projects I have used Drupal as a community management platform and it works well, though it requires solid technical support.
  • Elgg, an open source social networking platform that attracted me because of its unique underlying mode
  • The key differentiator of Elgg is that the individual is the centre of all the action
  • This is real user control
  • The Elgg platform has matured in the past six years and has a strong community and a solid product (v. 1.7).
  • One major advantage of Elgg will be the ability to take your data and have it hosted elsewhere.
  • Supporting communities like Elgg and Drupal means that we can have more control over our use of web technologies. As business and education move to the web and the cloud, open-source platforms will help to ensure that some corporate board doesn’t decide our future for us.

Learnlets » Formalizing informal learning? - 0 views

  • The Entreprise Collaborative has a new question, asking whether we can formalize informal learning.  I have to say, I don’t get the question.  That is, I understand what they’re asking, and like the response they give, but I really think it’s the wrong question. To me, it’s not about formalizing informal learning so much as explicitly supporting it versus ignoring it. 
  • To me, it is more a matter of providing infrastructure to support informal learning, and facilitating informal learning as well.
  • When I talk about providing infrastructure, I’m talking about putting in place tools that can be used for informal learning. 
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • One is optimizing the tool use, and the other is facilitating the associated skills
  • the facilitation of that informal learning.  I see two roles.
  • The second role is to develop individual ability to use the tools for learning, both independently and socially.  To repeat a regular refrain, don’t assume the ability of learners to be effective self- and social-learners.  There are specific meta-cognitive skills that should be made explicit, promoted, and supported.
  • In the process of facilitating, you may find opportunities to add value by taking some information and formalizing it

Coaching informal learning « Learning Journal - 0 views

  • what is needed for an informal learning strategy to be effective in the workplace
  • Motivation for learning. >  A culture that provides access to other people who support learning in a wide variety of ways >  Easy access to materials that support learning >  Skills in utilizing electronic tools to manage learning. 
  • I think I’ve landed on another important ingredient… a learning coach
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • Informal learning - by definition – requires a learner to set his or her own goals and to monitor progress toward those goals.
  • So the next step in the learning process is for the learner to come up with some kind of strategy for learning
  • A good coach pushes a learner to set challenging goals and to define clear strategies for meeting them.
  • A good coach sometimes teaches and often provides feedback on progress.  A good coach asks tough questions to help a learner reflect on and apply learning.  And a good coach applauds progress and takes some pride in the coachee’s accomplishments.
  • Who are these coaches?
  •  For workplace learning
  • the coach-learner relationship
  • we are all responsible for our own learning, including finding (or being) our own learning coach.
  • I hope I can be both a better learning coach and a better self-directed learner.

Personal Branding 101 - 0 views

    Personal Branding Philosophy The personal branding motto of this blog is simple: "Be You, Share You." I believe that these four simple words have a lot of meaning packed into them. The motto is only 4 words long, yet the word "you" appears twice - this is not by accident. If you only take one thing away from this blog, remember this: Your personal brand is yours, and only yours. In building your personal brand, you answer to no one but yourself. And this is a great thing! How empowering to be the President, CEO, CFO, and Marketing Director all at once. I also chose the word "share" very carefully. Sharing your knowledge, opinions, and skill set with others is a great way to build your personal brand without "promoting" yourself too aggressively. By helping others and sharing your best qualities in the process, you are indirectly selling yourself as a valuable resource. This process leads to the ultimate success in personal branding goal - creating a personal brand that truly represents you, and one that other people or companies simply cannot live without.

Where Social Learning Thrives | Learn at All Levels | Fast Company - 0 views

    Dónde emerge el aprendizaje social (cultura corporativa de 'servicio-curiosidad-calidad humana' + social media tools). "To benefit from social learning, build a culture that makes learning fun, productive and commonplace, a culture where learning is part of everyday work." "Social learning is not just the technology of social media, although it makes use of it. It is not merely the ability to express yourself in a group of opt-in friends. Social learning combines social media tools with a shift in the corporate culture, a shift that encourages ongoing knowledge transfer and connects people in ways that make learning a joy." "Social learning thrives in a culture of service and wonder. It is inspired by leaders, enabled by technology and ignited by opportunities that have only recently unfolded."
